eHealth Africa’s Sense Ebola Followup mobile app won the innovation award at the 2015 Netexplo Forum. eHealth Africa’s director and co-founder Evelyn Castle joined other winners of the innovation award on stage to discuss their health tech solutions, and to officially accept their awards (end of video).

When the Ministry of Health in Nigeria called on eHealth Africa to give aid to the outbreak of Ebola in 2014, Sense Ebola Followup was created. Once put into use, this new tool was able to cut down healthcare response time to new cases of Ebola by days at a time, effectively fighting the outbreak and saving lives.
